“…Early studies of children's behavior reported that time spent with radio decreased after the introduction of television (Himmelweit, Oppenheim, & Vince, 1958;Maccoby, 1951;Schramm, Lyle, & Parker, 1961). Cable reduced the amount of time viewers spent with local broadcast stations (Grotta & Newsom, 1982;Kaplan, 1978). Exposure to news via pagers was found to have a negative relationship with television news viewing time (Leung & Wei, 1999).…”

This research examines the function radio plays in the lives of today's youth. Teens have more media choices available to them than ever before. This study provides a contemporary benchmark for understanding the role of radio for teens. Among the findings here are that teens tend to have different functional uses for radio on the week days versus the weekends. Also, this study suggests that the notion of entertainment as a motive for radio listening with this audience may be a more complex notion than previously thought. Finally, this study reveals positive relationships between radio use and other media-both during the weekends and week days. The study suggests further research into gender differences and radio use.

This study examines how the spread of the Internet has affected Japanese people's information acquisition from traditional media or via traditional information channels. In particular, this study focuses on displacement and complementary effects and on devices for Internet access. Using representative data from Japan (N = 1,179), the results show that Internet use via mobile phone has complementary effects on information acquisition from traditional media, while Internet use via personal computers does not. In addition, the results show that Internet use via personal computers has a displacement effect on information acquisition from radio. These findings are discussed with regard to communication means, social contexts, and media interfaces.

“…For example, the use of VCR and cable were found to affect the use of television and other media (Cohen & Cohen, 1989;Grotta & Newsom, 1982;Kim, Baran, & Massey, 1988;Levy, 1980Levy, , 1981Levy, ,1983Levy, ,1987Sparkes, 1983;and Walker, 1988). A more recent line of research focuses on the use of remote control devices for "zapping", "channel-surfing", or "grazing" (Bollier, 1989;Gilbert, 1989;Greenberg & Heeter, 1987;Heeter & Greenberg, 1985;Rubin & Bantz, 1987;Walker & Bellamy, 1991 ;Weimann, 1995;Yorke & Kitchen, 1985).…”
